King Is in the Field

Exploring the political engagement of stateless Jews over two millennia, this compilation of essays from leading scholars delves into the nuances of Jewish political thought during diaspora. It examines diverse themes such as kabbalistic theology, economic philanthropy, and feminist activism, challenging traditional definitions of political action. By highlighting the political dynamics in adopted homelands, the book not only enriches the discourse on Jewish politics but also serves as a foundational resource for broader studies on statelessness and political action in various diasporas.
